Digitization in the enterprise: Improving HR skills is essential

Realizing the value of digitalization today is not only about choosing technology, but also about establishing a fully integrated system inside and outside the organization. With an advanced digital model, combining diverse technologies, processes, and people will help businesses make the most of new opportunities. Today's businesses should "digitize" in both thought and action, instead of "just using electronic technologies".

One of the essential factors of digitalisation, human resource management always plays an extremely important role. The question is “How to keep up with technological advancements and changes in an enterprise organization?”.

The importance of improving human resource skills in Vietnam

According to a recent study by Navigos Research (a company in Vietnam operating in the field of recruitment services), 41% of foreign enterprises in Vietnam are facing a shortage of mid-level personnel. and high level in both quantity and quality over the past 12 months. In fact, this "dilemma" is not so new in Vietnam.

According to this study, part of the reason lies in the inadequate leadership skills of managers in foreign organizations. Most of the respondents said that they feel the least satisfied with the management skills from their leaders.

To solve this problem, focusing on training is still the best solution. “Training the people who are training others” will make the model of “learning through hands-on practice under their supervision” more effective. 57% study participants agree that this is the model that is commonly applied in their businesses.

Vietnamese businesses are looking to invest in upskilling and human resource development, despite these challenges. Because, according to them, this investment not only brings benefits at the individual and corporate levels, but also contributes to the digital transformation at the industry level.

Now, even in the early days of the era of automation, artificial intelligence, and smart devices, we can predict the rapid disruption of these technologies. For HR, it is their challenge to ensure that their entire team can develop the skills they need to get the most out of the new tools and processes.

The role of HR in digital transformation

A good example is Fuji Xerox (in the Asia-Pacific region), in upgrading its human resource management system to facilitate the transformation of an organization from a printing equipment manufacturer. to become a document service/solution provider. This requires new skills from the staff as well as a new management mindset.

Fuji Xerox started by aligning its HR transformation initiative into its overall business strategy. They then review all policies and procedures related to people to ensure consistency across the board. And with the support of Oracle's cloud-based human resource management system, Fuji Xerox has been able to cut unnecessary administrative work and transaction processes from the staff, allowing they focus on building strategy (which is most essential to the success of the business). This system also makes it easy for Fuji Xerox to manage jobs, locations and jobs, including global assignments.

Recruitment and training strategy

To develop an ideal human resources (HR) strategy, business leaders need to clearly identify the skills and individuals that are essential to implementing and achieving business goals. Based on the assessment of human resources, the business can decide whether to develop the current staff, or recruit new more suitable people.
